ok im replacing my caster bar bushes tomorow with the M3 type.

the problem is i noticed there are 2 arrows ... one on either side and they arent the same. if u press in the bush using one arrow the offset is moved sideways. if u use the other it is moved sideways and up.

is there an explanation for this? right now im just goin to use the one that moves it to the side not up because this is the same as the original bush. i know this should be a safe option but is there some advantage to using the other arrow???

thanks

yeah sweet thats how i did it.

made a noticeble difference to the handling of the car. but the old bushes where a bit worn.

i suggest putting these in if your changing them soon.
